Looking through, I think it is very nicely done. Great work! For exclusion lists, this has come up before with regards to how to package these with descriptions of sites, since that is arguably the most important part, as it is the part that most people don't know how to set up on their own. Exclusion lists are about one of the few areas of the config that would benefit from an XML format. However, XML configs isn't doable now. Also, it would be beneficial to allow the exclusions to be commandline accessbile for future tools that wanted to call the parser with specific exclusions. Therefore, it was put forward, to include exclusions as numbered keys, using the existing method of an exclusion list entry. For example: exclusion_item1=0:-:.*\.mp3$ exclusion_item2=0:-:http://.*www.x10.com/.* The parser would then loop through a section, looking to see if there was the next incremented number of key, and if so, add that exclusion to the active exclusions.
